If unborn children could speak for themselves, is this what they would say?
Bishop Donald Hying of the Diocese of Madison, Wis., gave a voice to the voiceless in a recent Twitter post.
The bishop presented an unborn child’s possible words if he or she could speak.
Here’s his tweet below:
Bishop Hying’s full tweet reads, “If unborn children could speak, wouldn’t they say, ‘Let me be born. Let me walk, learn, dance and sing. Let me love God, pray, and make my contribution to the world. Let me fall in love, and know truth, beauty and goodness.’ Wouldn’t they say all of these things? Wouldn’t they?”
As of this writing, the bishop’s tweet generated 1,600 likes, almost 80 comments, and nearly 450 retweets.
Here’s how some people reacted:
This user wrote, “Bishop Hying, yes, may I offer mine?]They would say, ‘Mom, let me to be born, for there is a time to be born, to watch me crawl, to love me, a time to weep, a time to laugh, & a time to morn, but this isn’t the time to mourn, but a time of hope knowing God is with us both.’ [Eccl] 3:1.”
Another user wrote, “ They would! And how our world has been deprived–deprived ourselves of the many great works of art, music, discoveries, beauty, truth, goodness God intended for us in the souls of lives extinguished?”
This user added, “Yes, Your Excellency, they would! Made in the Image and Likeness of God, their precious lives are sacred from the first moment of existence. Thank you for defending the sanctity of every human life!”

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
